Reseña del libro "The Chessmen of Mars (Royal Collector's Edition) (Case Laminate Hardcover with Jacket) (en Inglés)"

The Chessmen of Mars centers on Tara, the daughter of John Carter and Dejah Thoris. When a storm carries Tara to a strange region of Mars, she is taken prisoner by the Kaldanes, beings that have a symbiotic relationship with humans. Unknown to Tara, Gahan of Gathol disguises himself and sets out on a dangerous mission to save her, which ends with their capture in the city of Manator. They are thrown into a lethal game of live chess, where the capture of any piece prompts a duel.The fifth installment in the Barsoom series, stands out for its inventive integration of the game of Jetan, a Martian chess variant that vividly incorporates the theme of real-life strategy and combat into the narrative. This game, played with living pieces on a grand board, mirrors the novel's larger conflicts and dramatizes its social and political intrigues. Burroughs' blend of fantastical settings with the intellectual and physical challenges of Jetan provides a distinctive twist that enriches the series' exploration of Martian culture and society. This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket.
